Headlight
2000SE and my headlight just went out. Works ok on high beam but no low beam. Can you change just the bulb on these headlights? If I just stop in at the dealer what should I expect to pay to get a new headlight? Do they have to replace the whole module these days? I don't have the Xenon, wish I did though.
Thanks

I have an 03, so don't quote me on this but if I do remember correctly, the 00-01's had a dual filament H4(?) bulb that handles both high and low beams.
If your low beam is out, one of the filament's is shot and yes you need a new bulb, not whole headlamp.
Buy em from ebay, I wouldn't go to the dealer for a halogen bulb, unless that is you plan on bringing along some lubricant because you will get raped!

You may want to also change them both with whatever you buy. Not sure if it really makes a difference, but I like to replace those in pairs to maintain the same 'color', brightness, etc. nevermind the fact that if one went, the other is probably not far behind.

Cool Blues?
Dealer wants like $20 for one bulb. Called Checker and they only want $8.99 for the stock bulb. Checker recommended replacing both with upgraded bulbs. I like that idea. They recommended "cool blue" bulbs that are $15.99/ea. Anybody use those????
